OpenStack MidoNet Neutron Plugin
Project description
This is the official Midonet Neutron plugin.
The current set of supported versions of MidoNet are:
v2015.03
v2015.06
v5.0
NOTE: MidoNet recently changed its versioning scheme. v5.0 is what used to be called v2015.09.
How to Install
For productional deployments, we recommend to use a package for your distribution if available:
http://builds.midonet.org/
You can install the plugin from the source code by running the following command:
$ sudo python setup.py install
Core plugin and L3 service plugin
The following entry in neutron.conf enables MidoNet as the Neutron plugin. There are two plugins to choose from.
Plugin v1, which is compatible with MidoNet v2015.03 and v2015.06:
[DEFAULT] core_plugin = midonet
Plugin v2, which is compatible with MidoNet v5.0 and beyond. It works with a separate L3 plugin which you need to add to the list of service plugins:
[DEFAULT] core_plugin = midonet_v2 service_plugins = midonet_l3
Interaction with Neutron agents
For v2015.03 and v2015.06, OpenStack deployment with MidoNet works with Neutron DHCP and Metadata agents.
For MidoNet v5.0 and later, no Neutron agents are necessary.
For details, please refer to MidoNet documentation:
https://docs.midonet.org
LBaaS
Starting in Kilo, MidoNet plugin implements LBaaS v1 following the advanced service driver model. To configure MidoNet as the LBaaS driver, set the following entries in the Neutron configuration file /etc/neutron/neutron.conf:
[DEFAULT] service_plugins = lbaas [service_providers] service_provider=LOADBALANCER:Midonet:midonet.neutron.services.loadbalancer.driver.MidonetLoadbalancerDriver:default
NOTE: This plugin does not use Neutron LBaaS agent.
FWaaS
Starting v5.0, MidoNet implements Neutron FWaaS extention API.
To configure it, add the following service plugin to the service_plugins list in the DEFAULT section of neutron.conf:
midonet_firewall
NOTE: No need to configure Firewall Driver at all. It’s irrelevant because this plugin does not use Neutron L3 agent.
